Posted by jmaslow
Its AP season. Fun stuff. I've been gathering a bunch of mad helpful AP study guides. Go to school stuff to get them.
Also start looking forward to a teacher bracket and crushlists.

Jackson, will you not go to JProm with me? I'm sorry if publicly asking you puts you under pressure to say yes. But yeah, I'd really like to not go with you. <3.

Prom season is back. But don't fret about a date, stuycom has you covered. With the Prama section, seniors can list their dates so you dont look dumb asking out the girl thats been taken for months. We know its silly and highschooly but it actually can be really useful if you guys use it.
So click on the prama tab up top to head on over. You wont even have to log in to look at the list!

You are a second grader.

Dear Mr./Ms. I told on people for running a Ms. Class of 2011 bracket and posting mean things on formspring,
You are a second grader. This is high school. People say mean things. I do not advocate saying mean things, posting hurtful opinions in the public domain, nor demeaning women in any way (LOL). However, once you get to this age, I think its time to stop the whole telling the teacher thing. I don't know who you are, and I don't have any interest in your motives for turning people/Ben Garner in, but I think you suck just a little bit. I'm not gonna go off on a personal attack here, but really? Really? Clearly you haven't taken Ms. Weinwurm's class and learned how to communicate correctly. I would say complaining to a guidance counselor is a defense mechanism, no?
I want to make it clear that I'm not writing this to hurt anyone or create controversy. Well, maybe create controversy because that's why people come to this site. Anyway, what I think is even worse than tattling to a guidance counselor is the fact that a counselor would force a student to shut down a formspring account. I completely understand the usefulness of talking to a guidance counselor about something that upsets you, and if the person responsible was simply doing that, sorry for saying anything. But when a school has the power to tell a student what they can and can't do on the internet on their own time, something is just wrong. Also, from what I understand, most of the hurtful things being said were anonymous posts, not those of the formspring account holders. I was never a Ben Garner fan, but man I have gained some respect for the kid with this situation.
ALSO about this Ms. 2011 bullshit. Guys, that was kinda fucked up to make it open to mad people you barely know. Girls, what do you think guys talk about on their own anyway? Is it that different that they decided to do it in an orderly fashion? Get over it. Sure its demeaning, and admittedly that's wrong, but there's a reason it was supposed to be kept secret. They didn't want to hurt anybody. And I guarantee if we pulled up some of your facebook messages or iChat transcripts we would find some pretty fucked up shit about guys too. Shit got out of control, and now people need to chill. Not a big deal.
Oh, and when did Stuy become a typical high school with all this drama? I thought we were too smart to pull shit like this?
Guess not...
Peace out, bitches...

Stuyvesant, you should be excited. The real March Madness is about to begin. I'll probably get around to coding it over break. Also, stuycom will soon be your main source of information for everything concerning the Stuyvesant Chinese vs. Korean war/olympics. To get things started, check out the new either/or.
Love,
Jackson
EDIT: Due to popular demand, Dr. Chen will appear in the bracket.
March Madness

March Madness is upon us!
No, I'm not taking college basketball. I'm talking teachers. What do I mean? After a previous failed attempt at a tournament, we're trying it again. You're voting on your favorite teachers. We've broken it up into four regions
If some of your favorite teachers aren't on there....deal. Voting will be up soon, for now just discuss/make bets with your friends.Pudding

Hey stuy. Marta Bralic, a stuy alum currently at harvard, has something exciting to share with you.
If you like SING! you'll LOVE:
Hasty Pudding Theatricals 162: Commie Dearest
As the nation's oldest collegiate theater group, Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatricals has been performing its unique brand of humor since 1844, when the first hairy-chested heroines took the stage in "Bombastes Furioso." In essence, the show is a no-holds-barred burlesque musical, with men playing both male and female roles. Each show is written, composed, and produced by students, and continues to enjoy a five week run in Cambridge before taking the show on tour to New York and Bermuda.
It's the 1950s, and the residents of a typical American suburb are all vying to win the American Dream, a bowling trophy. But the arrival of star ball-loving ballplayer Doug Out and sexy-but-fishy starlet Marlin Monroe to award the prize brings everyone's secrets to the surface. And when Bobbie Sox, a local Pink Lady-turned-Pinko Lady, unwittingly brings a communist mastermind to town, the stakes rise even higher as everyone's way of life is threatened by the evil Communist space potato Spud Nick and his Russian mail-order bride sidekick. Their Cold War threatens to give a whole new meaning to climate change.

The Hasty Pudding will be in New York on March 12th and 13th performing at 8pm at The Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College (68th and Lexington). Tickets are on sale at the Kaye Playhouse Box office which can be reached at 212-772-4448.

For my delta people out there who remember Mr. Barton's Bermuda drag story, this is the same program. That's a reason enough to go right there. For more info, go to hastypudding.org
